Jeremy Stephens will "recalibrate" after taking a quick UFC 328 loss to King Green, which followed a huge weight miss.

Jeremy Stephens is not deterred by a difficult defeat at UFC 328 . Stephens (29-23 MMA, 15-20 UFC) made history in dubious fashion on Saturday in his first-round submission loss to King Green (35-17-1 MMA, 16-12-1 UFC) at Prudential Center in Newark, N. J.

With the defeat, he became the first fighter to ever lose 20 times inside the octagon. The five significant strikes landed by Stephens were just one more than the amount of pounds he missed weight – as he did by four – ahead of the matchup. It was not a banner week for "Lil' Heathen," but he already seems eager to move past it (via Instagram ): View this post on Instagram
